Editing dark form for vampires

For some reason when I try to change my vampire sim's dark form it also changes her regular form. Anyone run into this before or knows how to fix it?

    Click the 'unlink forms' button or whatever it's called. Looks like a linked chain. While it remains linked, any changes you make to one form will also be made to the other. When you click it and the icon changes to an unlinked chain, the changes made to one form will not affect the other

    It is a great quality of life feature, particularly in outfit management. Prior to this if I wanted to add or edit outfits I had to then go to the dark form and add and edit outfits to be in corresponding order. With the link feature I no longer need to do this. Yes, it will also link the normal form eyes and features as well, but that is much faster to fix than editing multiple outfits and hairstyles per category twice and being sure that they each line up with the other.
  • I think linking thing should be "unlinked" by default instead of linked one. It's so possible that one may forgot to unlink it themselves. I mean there's the copy to dark form option right? It's easy to copy the changes but we can't actually get back to the other forms original look that we intended to make without losing the other forms changes :neutral:

  • It has its pros and cons and at first I also encountered the same thing as @Stutum but as I played more it is actually QoL but kind of punishes you if you forgot to unlink the form when you want to make hideous dark form.
  • You see the normal form thumbnail actualizing itself at the same time, that's how I know I forgot to unlink.
